The Ministry of Justice said seven companies reportedly based in the UAE and sanctioned by the United States for ties to Sudan do not operate in the country.
The Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) of the US Treasury Department earlier this year imposed sanctions on seven entities due to their reported involvement in activities violating US sanctions on Sudan.
The Ministry said it launched its own investigation into the businesses and related individuals, supplemented by additional information from the US.
"None of the seven entities hold an active business license in the UAE, nor are they currently operating in the UAE. Relevant UAE authorities continue to monitor any potential suspicious activity in accordance with applicable UAE laws." the Ministry said.
The companies are: Capital Tap Holding LLC, Capital Tap Management Consultancies LLC, Capital Tap General Trading LLC, Creative Python LLC, Al Zumoroud and Al Yaqoot Gold & Jewellers LLC, Al Jil Al Qadem General Trading LLC, and Horizon Advanced Solutions General Trading LLC.
